New Release

Hello out there! Happy Tuesday everyone. I know I’ve been so quiet but I promise you it’s because I’m writing, writing, writing! But today guess what I’m doing? Today I’m CELEBRATING! Back in 2010, I joined the Washington DC Romance Writers group and they are by far the most amazing ladies (and one gentleman, Hi Tim!). Generous, brilliant and warm are the three words I’d use to describe them all. I could go on and on but I’ll just say that it was the first time I’d ever entered somewhere a complete stranger and left with true lifelong friends. And three of those friends have SMOKING HOT romance releases today. So it is my greatest pleasure to share with you…

Hot Nights with the Fireman by my critique partner and friend, Lynne Silver! True story: after reading the first draft for this, my first words to Lynne were how the book’s hero, Jason, was one of those who could get away with ANYTHING and I’d still love him. So consider yourselves warned!

ONE SPARK IS ALL IT TAKES

Everyone in Washington, DC, knows that when the heat is on, you call Valerie Wainright. This brilliant, brassy PR maven can spin any hot scandal, and she’s never let a client ruffle her feathers. Yet when she agrees to teach DC’s bravest how to handle a media frenzy, she faces an entirely different kind of fire. Keeping things all business and no pleasure is far harder than she expected.

After steamy photos ignite the Internet, firefighter Jason Moore instantly goes from hero to bad boy. While he couldn’t care less about an online rep, he cares a lot about his job and saving lives. If Valerie can help clear his name, he’ll do what she says-even if it means forcing himself to keep his hands off her. But beneath Valerie’s cool cover, Jason feels a smoldering desire that lights his own. And this is one inferno he’ll definitely want to stoke . . .

Feast on this collection of 22 Contemporary and Paranormal/Sci-Fi/Fantasy Erotic stories from bestselling, award-winning and multi-published authors, in this limited-time anthology. All stories are exclusive new content and can be read without reading the series, but will be icing on the cake for readers loyal to each saga. Continue reading →

Hello friends and Happy Almost Memorial Day! I know I’ve been extra quiet lately but that’s because my muse became very ambitious a few months ago and I’ve got no less than four books I’m working on to get to you! So while I’m holed up in the writing cave playing slave to my muse, I’m very happy to bring you the newest release by my good teasing friend, the awesome Lucy Felthouse. With the long holiday weekend upon us, here’s a little something to heat up the first official weekend of summer…

When Captain Hugh Wilkes fell for his Afghan interpreter, Rustam Balkhi, he always knew things would never be easy. After months of complete secrecy, their return to England should have spelt an end to the sneaking around and the insane risks. But it seems there are many obstacles for them to overcome before they can truly be happy together. Can they get past those obstacles, or is this one battle too many for their fledgling relationship?

Author’s note: Although this story does work as a standalone tale, it’s recommended that you read the first instalment of the characters’ journey first—Desert Heat, which is available from all good retailers.

I crush hard on romance novel heroes and I know you do too. Which is why I’m inviting special guest authors and their heroes to select and answer two questions for us. The questions come from a list I designed to dip into what really lies underneath all that strapping, heroic yumminess. Today’s guest author is one of the cutest yet steamiest writing honeys I know, the one and only Miss Elyzabeth M. VaLey! I have yet to read a hero of Elyzabeth’s that I didn’t fall in love with. Please give a warm welcome to Miss VaLey and her latest heart-conquering hero, William Dalton. I wonder what the ever charming Mr. Dalton is willing to share…

Question One: What do you smell like and what word would you use to describe a nice smelling woman?

What do I smell like? Ms. Love- Flores or is that Mrs.? Do you not deem that question a tad inappropriate? After all, we have hardly just met.

*William raises his eyebrows. A shadow of a smile flits over his lips.*

I will however share with you what I deem a nice smelling woman. She smells like sunshine and flowers, like apricots and peaches. She smells like the woodlands in spring: fresh and alive. Does that satisfy your curiosity, Ms. Love-Flores?

***Friends, I told you!!! I am such a sucker for Miss VaLey’s men! Mr. Dalton, stop smiling like that and yes, Ms. Love-Flores is satisfied. So very satisfied. Yet, all the more curious…***

Question Two: When is the last time you laughed really hard and what caused it?

I crush hard on romance novel heroes and I know you do too. Which is why I’m inviting special guest authors and their heroes to select and answer two questions for us. The questions come from a list I designed to dip into what really lies underneath all that strapping, heroic yumminess. Today’s guest author is a dear friend of mine and fellow Waterworld Mermaid sister, Miss Loni Lynne! One thing I love about doing these hero interviews is the vast difference in the guys. You’ll see what I mean as you read on. Please give a warm welcome to Loni and her immortal, brooding hero, Mike. I wonder what Mike is willing to share…

Loni Lynne: Folks, my hero, Mike Linder is a bit of a recluse. An immortal, having been turned during a bloody battle in Vietnam. He has a lot of angst and horrors deep inside that are darker than the immortality he now lives with.

But I have managed to coerce him from his dark, hidden sanctuary…briefly.

Aww, Mike, hugs from all of us reading, and thank you, xoxoxo.

Loni Lynne:Mike, I know you don’t really want to be here so I’ll be gentle. What is your favorite song and why?

The questions come from a list I designed to dip into what really lies underneath all that strapping, heroic yumminess. Today’s guest author is a dear friend of mine and Washington DC Romance Writing sister, Miss Mackenzie Lucas! Please give a warm welcome to Mackenzie and her sexy rock star hero, Josh. I wonder what Josh is willing to share…

Question One: What’s the last completely spontaneous thing you did?

Josh: My last spontaneous action was to walk away from my manager and travel to Serenity Island alone to write the album I needed to write. Once there, a whole string of crazy bad-ass spontaneity ensued. You’ll have to read my story to find out.

I plan to do just that and bravo to you. That was a very gutsy decision and one that I’m sure paid off with some really good music. You’re awfully cute, by the way. ;-)

Question Two: What is your favorite song and why?

Josh: It’s the song I wrote called “Bridges” in honor of my grandfather Saul Cohen. He’s a great musician in his own right and I never felt I could measure up to the old man until I came to Serenity and found the heart of my music.
